Just got this thing and I have a question the AMPERAGE total. It's my understanding that in a P2S2 mod I get the double mAh of the parallel side. But do I also get the mAh from the series side as well. Using 4- 20amp cells, it's 40 amps from the P2, would I be correct that an additional 20 amps from the S2 could be added for the total mAh? I don't ever forsee my need of 60 amp draw but I would just like to know if this the case
What specific batteries are you using?
mAh is a battery's capacity of charge - this is doubled in parallel configuration. So if your batteries are, say, 2600 mAh batteries, your total mAh in a HOG is 5200 mAh
Amp rating is how much power they can safely put out - this is also doubled in parallel
But in series, you double the voltage of the batteries as well, which doubles the amount of current a build will draw (compared to non-series)
If your batteries are rated at 20 amps, the parallel aspect doubles your "safe" total amps to 40. That's the end of how it affects total amps safely available to use
Now double the voltage when using an ohms law calculator, with your coil's resistance, to get how many amps your coil will pull.
Series does nothing for mAh or total amp rating
of the batteries
Series doubles the Voltage of the batteries, and therefore doubles the Amps
pulled by the resistance of the coil
Your HOG, if it isnt a dangerous shitty clone and if your batteries arent dangerous shitty rewraps, has 5200 mAh capacity (or whatever 2x your batteries actual mAh is) and a 40 amp continuous discharge rating
